When I select a recorded program to playback from the GUI, DigiTV crashes. I mailed Nebula yesterday afternoon and have just received their response:-

Hi David,

We are sorry to learn that some files will not open using DigiTV. It has been brought to our attention recently that the latest versions of DigiTV have an indexing bug that crashes DigiTV when certain files are opened using the screen shots method (Programs at a Glance). Can you please therefore try opening the non converted file by navigating to Video Recorder (top bar of DigiTV) -> Play, and selecting the file. If DigiTV does not play the file this way please let us know.

We have a fix for the indexing problem and this will be released before the end of this month with the next free software update. We hope you can bear with us until then.

I've only been using Nebula for about 4 months so I can't really comment, but I expect that the software has progressed quite significantly in that last 12 months. The latest build is 3.114 with an update due on the 23/8. Go on, give it a try..... go on, go on, go on!!!

Is there a newer version which is better? (My version is about a year old!)

They introduced "Bob" deinterlacing, which helps with motion, but I'm not sure whic version exactly. I'd have thought the quality should be similar to most set-top boxes. The fact that it is digital media, and that some broadcasts are lower bitrate than others, has an effect (there's only so much bandwidth in the stream to accomodate detailed fast changing scenes) so analogue solutions may give better results, in some cases.
